| - Let me put this out there right now:
I'm not a Beatles fan. I don't mind their music, but I don't own a Beatles Album...in fact, I prefer covers of Beatles Songs.
That being said, my husband and I had the opportunity to go see "LOVE" this weekend...and I really enjoyed myself!
The theater is in the round, which is a first for me with Cirque Du Soleil. I've seen 4 of their other shows on the strip, and have never seen an "in the round" performance before...I thought it worked really well.
This show seemed, to me anyway, to be much more dancing, and less acrobatics. There were still plenty of acrobatic acts: aerial/tissue, rope climbing, trampolines, and these AMAZING roller blade tricks!! It seemed to be more focused on dancing to the music though, and I liked it.
I'm a huge Cirque du Soleil fan, so I knew that the quality of the performances would be second to none.
Hats off to the performers, you all did an incredible job!
The theater staff was great too. Everyone was very friendly, and cracked jokes with us.
My issue: the seats are not comfortable. They are SUPER close together and cramped. Other theaters chairs seem just a touch bigger, and not quite as cramped together.
That issue aside, I would highly recommend the show, Beatles fans or not. It was extremely well done, and I would LOVE to see it again.
